I am the Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Westlake Private Wealth Management. I joined the team with the goal of strengthening our foundation and infrastructure to help us become one of the best practices in the country.

Prior to taking the COO position, I spent years with Risk Supervision as both a Regional Supervisor and a Senior Supervisory Control Specialist. I have partnered with Westlake Private Wealth Management since 2018 and joined the practice in 2022. I possess a strong industry knowledge and have a passion for developing long-term client relationships and problem solving. Currently I am working on running the practice’s day to day activities, providing Financial Advisor guidance, and managing practice risks.

I grew up in St. Louis, MO, believe in a strong family foundation, and am blessed with two wonderful kids Ricky and Tori. I enjoy playing hockey, hiking, cycling, skiing, and traveling as well as being active in numerous charitable organizations which include Pedal the Cause and Friends of Kids with Cancer.
